Greetings,

 

I am starting a stewardship position with Winnakee Land Trust. I am
currently gathering some information concerning equipment as we are looking
into acquiring a GPS unit. I would appreciate some advices concerning GIS
software. 

 

We are about to buy a Trimble GeoXT with a Geo-Beacon receiver. But to go
with it, Trimble recommends the Terra sync Pro Pathfinder office software
while ESRI pushes me toward ArcPad within their Geo-collector Submeter
package. The price difference is not very significant; I am most interested
in the functionality and ease to use. (FYI, we use ArcGis 9).

 

What would you recommend for easement monitoring? 

Do these two options actually provide the same services?

I would welcome any other comments on this equipment.

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Raphael Notin
